There are only two torrents on hdbits bigger than 500GB's. Both are porn collections...

The torrent got deleted, obviously.

I can not imagine you guys downloaded a huge pack over 100 GB
If I download like that, it is very hard for me to seed back to keep good ratio.

It happens quite often that I download a torrent of >100GB size actually (seeding a 120GB one now, for example). 'Huge' packs like that are usually free leech or at least partial free leech, at least on the sites I'm on. And the bigger a torrent is, the easier it is to seed back (if you want to improve your ratio, go for the bigger sized torrents, not the smaller ones; a mistake many users make).

Of course this might be different on a tracker that has a small userbase, few leechers and / or a generally fucked up ratio system (many seedbox whores, no bonus system, no free leech torrents etc.), but I avoid those. If I can't maintain a good ratio by downloading the stuff I want, I simply don't use the tracker. And I never download stuff to improve my ratio, only stuff I actually want to download.
